Honestly I wasn't expecting this one. If I thought I had a shot at any tonight it was the short story award (Faramir was always going to walk away with the International Management) but this is truly incredible. If you don't give me a hat-trick next year then I think I might cry.

Cheers to each and every one of you who voted for me, and death to all of you who didn't icon_razz.gif

Dirty Soviet corruption shining through.

F*ck it, bring on the Vodka!

Seriously, congrats to everyone, worthy winners, all of youse. Heck, even being nominated is an achievement after all, despite it not being the best of years in terms of overall quality.

On a sidenote, I notice this is the first time neither myself nor PM won anything. So the first drink is on yesterday's men icon_wink.gif

I've had a wonderful evening guys, would have been more interesting if I was involved in the nominations or I had even bothered to vote, but I joined to late to catch the early stories but I'm more up to date now. So I will be able to contribute more.

My plane awaits have a fun evening and don't celebrate to much!

Aye, well done to every nominee, and congratulations to all the winners (including me!!)

G'night all, I'll gloss over my abandoned tale and start something new soon so you don't have to keep dredging through the Story of the Year icon_smile.gificon_wink.gif

To explain; this was the only result I hadn't previously heard. But it makes little difference really. Besides, Marseille won tonight \o/
